OFF FOR THE BAY.
In consquenece of continued ill-health,
iind upon the advice of several physicians,
we have concluded to spend a few weeks at
Yaqnina Bay. James A. Yantis will have
charge of the editorial department during
our absence, and Mr. Johnson Odeneal will
attend to office business, and is authorized
to receive and receipt for all moneys due the
Gazette. Mr. W. P. Ready, of course,
will look after the job' department.' Any
favors shown these gentlemen will be duly
appreciated. Hoping soon to recover our
wonted health, we bid our readers a tempo
rary adieu, and hie ns to the " sounding
sea." W. B. Carter.
Tract No. 5. We are in receipt of a
beat, 28 -page tract, entitled, " Experience
and wonderful sayings of Mrs. C. A. Cas
tle," late of Philomath, Oregon. Published
by the Holiness Association in the Church
of United Brethren in Christ. It is full of
comfort to the true Christian, and affords
much encouragement to the seeker of reli
gion. Mrs; Castle, by her holy and devoted
life, and self -sacrifice, did much to implant
a higher type of Christianity in her circle of
acquaintance, and leaves a rich legacy to
those who may enjoy the privilege of read
ing her wonderful sayings. Her life is a
glorious eulogy upon the pure religion of
the blessed Saviour, and well worthy of imi
tation. The tract concludes with a beauti
ful poem, entitled " The angels are still
waiting for me," by Mr. J. B. Homer (Hor
ner), of Philomath college.
At thb Bat. W. B. Carter, the Boss o?
the Gazette, Started for Newport last Mon
day, to be absent several weeks, and is now,
doubtless, at Newport. We mention this
fact for several reasons. First : the hotels
will desire to order an extra ship load of
provisions, and the oyster men and clam
diggers may now understand that their
'flush times " have commenced. We offer
no other reasons at present, as our first duty
is to him. We have annouced him, and the
people must take care of themselves. He
carries with him a paper collar, a copy of
the Gazstte, four dollars and fifteen cents
in coin, and a deadhead ticket over the
road. And still the Gazette is "only $2 50
a year, iff advance."

Modest. Recently, a very modest young
lady from Long Tom, who wanted a pair of
garters, addressed a good-looking Second
Street merchant thus : " It is my desire to
Obtain a pair of circular elastic appendages,
capable of being contracted or expanded by
means of oscillating burnished steel appli
ances that sparkle like particles of gold leaf
set with Alaska diamonds, and which are
utilized for retaining in proper position the
habiliments of the lower extremities, which
innate delicacy forbids me to mention."
Fine Grass. Mr. A. B. Powers, of this
county, on last Saturday, placed some very
fine specimens of mesquite grass in the ex
press office, in this city, directed to the
managers of the O. & Cal. R. R. Mr. Pow
ers thinks this one of the best grasses that
has been introduced in this state. It is
adapted both for grazing and hay. We hope
Benton county will be fairly represented in
the Mechanice' exhibition next month. Mr.
Powers sends this specimen in answer to a
request recently published in the Gazette.
Masonic Funeral Mr. Sigmond Fox,
Who died at his home in Albany on the 17th
Inst., was buried last Sunday with the hon
ors of the Masonic fraternity, of Which, for
Several years, he had. been a zealous and
prominent member. Although only twenty
eight years of age, Mr. Fox had, by his uni
form courtesy and true Worth, attached to
Kim a very large circle of friends in different
parts of the State, Who deeply mourn his
untimely death.
Railroad Iron. The iron and rolling
Stock for the Yaqnina railroad arrived in
Portland last week, and for convenience1 in

part of town and constructed a pier to
land it on, also graded and tied a track out
to 3rd street, where the iron will be for
the present stacked up, ready for use. The
iron is now expected any time.
DischaRgep. The railroad contractor,
M. T. Ward, Who was arrested at Seattle,
W. T., last week, was taken before Chief
Justice Green, at Olympia, on habeas cor
pus, and discharged Saturday. It appears
that Ward was arrested on a civil warrant
from Polk county, and Gov. Thayer proper
erly refused to issue a requisition and
Ward's release Was inevitable.

that a gentleman should at least know a la

her to a freiud on a street corner. But
whether it is polite or not it is not safe to
try it, as the girl is liable to turn her back
to you. A young gentlemen living not a
thousand miles from here can testify to this
fact.

A little added to the soil ;
A little rest from hardest toil,
A little silver in his hair ; '
A little stool, and easy chair ;

A little cortege to the tomb.

Don't Forget It.
. If you are troubled with nervousness are
disheartened tired of life, fear death or feel
out of sorts as the saying is, you may safely
conclude that you have the Dyspepsia or
liver Complaint. The liver is very apt to
become torpid this season of the year as
poisons arising from stagnant water
or decaying vegetation are more numerous
and are through inhalation taken into the
blood. Unless the liver is strong and active
and furnishes a supply of fresh and pure
blood to drive out the impurities, the above
mentioned symtoms surely follow, and if
not heeded, end in more terrible diseases
and death. White's Prairie Flower proves
itself the Great Liver Panacea. Its action
on the liver is different from any medicine
ever compounded. Its cures are tmely won
derful Try it Price twenty-five' cents
and seventy-five cents.
Fellows' Compound syrup is acknowledged
by physicians to be a composition which

for General Debility and all nervous com

wonderful curative powers in thousands of
cases, feels it his duty to make it known

TO DONATION CLAIMANTS 1
THE ATTENTION OF CLAIMANTS TO
donations of land, their assigns and le
gal representatives, is particularly called to
that part of section 6 of the act of Congress,
approved July 17th, 1854, entitled "An act
to amend an act approved September twenty-seventh,
eighteen hundred and fifty, to
create the office of Surveyor-General of th
public lands in Oregon, etc., and also- the
act amendatory thereof, approved' February
nineteen, fourteen, eighteen hundred and
fifty-three," which reads as follows, to-wit :
"All persons claiming donations under
this act, or the acts of which it is amenda
tory, shall give notice to the
Surveyor-General, or other duly authorized
officer, of the particular lands claimed as
such donation, within thirty days after be
ing requested so to do by such officer; and
failing tne claimant or claim
ants shall forfeit all right and claim thereto. "
Now, therefore, the undersigned, being
such " other duly authorized officer," do
hereby give notice, to each and ever per
son, his or her assigns and legal representa
tives, claimants of donations of lands, with
in the district of lands subject to sale at the
United States District Land Office at Ore
gon city, Oregon, under said acts of Con
gress ; that each and every one of them,
within thirty days from the 9th day of July,
A. D. 1879 (being the day of expiration of
six weeks' publication hereof), give notice
to the Register and Receiver of said Land
Office, at Oregon City, Oregon, "of the
particular lands claimed as such donations ;"
and failing such notice the
claimant or claimants shall forfeit all rights
and claims thereto."
And each and every person claiming the
benefits of said act of September 27th, 1850,
and the legislation supplemental thereto,
will, within six months after the expiration
of the aforesaid thirty days, cause to be
filed in the United States Land Office at
Oregon City, Oregon, the proof, as required
by law, to complete their claim to a dona
tion of land, under said act ; and failing so
to do, such claims will be held for cancelLv
tion.
In witness whereof the Register and Re

Albany, April 20, 1879.
The undersigned phvsicians of Albany, having
seen the apparatus used in Ames' process for preserv
ing meats, etc., and beard the manner of its use ex
plained, together' with the chemicals used, will say,
that as used, we do- not consider there is any danger
to the health to be feared, either in operating the ap
paratus,, or in using the articles preserved. Not hav
ing seen a protracted test of the process of preserva
tion by the chemicals, as used in the manner indicat
ed, we will only say that the theory sounds reasona
ble, and we can assign no cause why the process
should not prove a success,

The undersigned physicians of Corvallis, Oregon,
having had explained to us Ames' process for preserv
ing meats, etc. , can say that there is nothing Un
healthy about it, as used, and that no fears need be
apprehended on that account. We have also seen
meat, fish, butter, etc., that has been kept several
weeks by this "process," and believe that its claim
to keep the various articles of provisions sweet and
fresh can be sustained. H. Grrkn, M. D.,
